You can now store your “end-of-life” wishes at Google’s free online health records management service. Google Health provides “advance directive” forms on which you can specify what you want your doctors to do or not do when you are too ill or injured to express any wishes.

These forms have been created in collaboration with an organization specializing in elder care. These are available free for download online and you can customize them to the laws in US states.

“An advance directive allows you to determine your end-of-life wishes so that your family and doctor can honor them if you get sick and are unable to communicate,” Roni Zeiger and Julie Wilner of the Google Health team said in a message at Google’s official blog.

“The decision to sign an advance directive is an important and personal one, and Google Health now makes it a little bit easier.”

Google Health also added a feature wherein users can upload their scanned medical records to profiles for storage and can share it selectively.
